Marzoochi shocks
« on: April 24, 2017, 11:50:36 pm »
 Hey all,

New member here...I just picked up a cb750F with these shocks that look rebuildable.  I like how they are period specific, but to my understanding have been laying around for 25 years or so.  Needless to say, the back of the bike feels like a pogo stick.  I could charge them with nitrogen, but I'm sure shocks this old have some bad seals etc...

I looked some stuff up online and didn't find much, did a search function here and found a link that didn't work.  Any suggestions?  Have any of you dealt with these?

Thanks in advance,
Logged

These are great period shocks and totally rebuildable. There are a few places that sell the Strada rebuild kits. I found mine at a place in Europe so that's probably your best bet. Should be $60-70 for everything you need.

Should not be too hard to find the rebuild parts.

There is a member on DTT that rebuilds old shocks fairly regulatory.

Do The Ton, another forum that can be useful as another resource. There are a ton of guys over there that aren't here, so there is probably a bigger net to be cast there.
